Select Domain Controller

Use this page to specify a domain controller to restore Group Policy. The domain controller must be running and accessible from the network.

  • Domain controller. Specifies the domain controller.

  • Change. Click Change to specify your domain controller by NetBIOS name or DNS name in the dialog box that opens.

  • Select an account to restore Group Policy Objects. Specifies the account to access your domain controller.

  • Change. Click Change to specify an account in the dialog box that opens. This account must have permission to modify Group Policy Objects.

  • Click Next to connect to the domain controller and prepare for the restore process (No backup data will be transferred until the restore starts).

 

Group Policy Object Selection

Use this page to select Group Policy objects to be restored. This page also allows you to view the comparison report for the selected Group Policy objects.

  • Group Policy Objects available for restore. Lists the objects the wizard will process. The Name column displays the object’s distinguished name. In the list, each entry includes the State in AD column indicating the state of the Group Policy object in Active Directory in comparison with that in the backup. Initially, for all entries, the State in AD column indicates ‘Not compared’. To have the wizard compare the state of Group Policy objects in Active Directory® with that in the backup, click Compare All.

    The comparison may be a lengthy operation, depending on the number of Group Policy objects. You may skip this operation or select individual GPOs to be compared and click Compare.

  • Compare All. Compares the Group Policy objects state and then modifies the Group Policy Object Selection page, allowing you to view the state of each Group Policy object available for restore. In the Group Policy Objects available for restore list, each entry is labeled with one of the following icons:

    • Resources/Images/GPO1.png - the object differs from that in the backup—the State in AD field indicates ‘Different’.

    • Resources/Images/GPO2.png - the object is the same as that in the backup—the State in AD field indicates ‘Identical’.

    • Resources/Images/GPO3.png - the object is currently deleted but still exists in the backup—the State in AD field indicates ‘Deleted’.

  • Compare. Compares the state of the selected Group Policy objects and then displays the comparison results on the Group Policy Object Selection page. In the Group Policy Objects available for restore list, the entries that correspond to the selected Group Policy objects are labeled with one of the following icons:

    • Resources/Images/GPO1.png - the object differs from that in the backup—the State in AD field indicates ‘Different’.

    • Resources/Images/GPO2.png - the object is the same as that in the backup—the State in AD field indicates ‘Identical’.

    • Resources/Images/GPO3.png - the object is currently deleted but still exists in the backup—the State in AD field indicates ‘Deleted’.

  • View Report. Click this button to view the comparison report for the GPOs you select from the Group Policy Objects available for restore list.

To select Group Policy objects to be restored
  • In the list under Group Policy Objects available for restore, select check boxes next to Group Policy objects, and then click Next to proceed with the wizard.

 

GPO Restore Options

Use this page to choose whether to restore policy settings, security settings, or both.

  • Restore policy settings in Group Policy Object. If the Group Policy object has been modified since the time the backup was created, restores all policy settings to the state they had at the time of the backup. If the Group Policy object has been deleted, creates a new object with the same name and policy settings as the backed up object.

  • Restore security settings on Group Policy Object. Restores all security information on the Group Policy object. As a result, all users and security groups have the same access permissions on the object as they had when the backup was created.

 

Link Restore Options

Use this page to restore links to the Group Policy object to the state they had at the time of the backup. As a result, the object is used by the same sites, domains, and organizational units that used it at the time when the backup was created.

  • Action. Allows you to specify the link restore options. You can replace the existing links in your domain with those from the backup or leave the existing links intact. In addition, you can merge the backed up links with those that currently exist in the domain.

  • Group Policy object links at the time the backup was created. Provides a list of sites, domains, and organizational units that used the selected Group Policy object at the backup time.

If you have selected several GPOs on the Group Policy Object Selection page, this list is not displayed. In the list, each entry includes the following fields:

  • Link. Displays the full distinguished name of directory objects to which the Group Policy object was linked at the backup time.

  • State in AD. Indicates the current state of the link in Active Directory® (shown as Present or Deleted)

  • No Override. Indicates whether the link was set to No Override (shown as Yes or No), so that Group Policy objects linked at a lower level of Active Directory could not override that policy

  • Disabled. Indicates whether that link was set to Disabled (shown as Yes or No), which prevented the Group Policy object from applying to the site, domain, or organizational unit

To specify the link restore options
  1. From the Action list, select one of the following:

    • Restore the backed up snapshot of links. The wizard replaces the existing links to the Group Policy object with the links taken from the backup (those listed under Group Policy object links at the time the backup was created).

    • Merge the backed up links with the existing links. The wizard restores the listed links, remaining the existing links intact.

    • Make no changes to links. The wizard does not restore links, nor does it make changes to the existing links.

  2. When finished, click Next. Note that clicking Next does not actually start the restore process, only allowing you to review your restore options.
